Heavy snow was accompanied by winds gusting to around 40 mph from the north to northeast. The combination produced frequent visibilities of a quarter mile or less, while the snow accumulation and drifting made travel difficult to impossible. The snow accumulated up to 10 inches.

Event Narrative

Snow accumulating 6 to 9 inches was accompanied by north to northeast winds gusting to around 40 mph. The combination resulted in visibilities frequently lowering to a quarter mile or less and, along with drifting snow, made travel difficult to impossible. Power outages were reported from snow weighting down power lines, and snow laden trees falling on lines.
